SUBJECT: BUCKS CO BK ARRIVALSFROM: SANDRA BUCKMAN (VDRT14A)To All; I AM GOING TO POST THE " BOOK OF ARRIVALS" in Bucks as it is just too interesting not to share, as many of the families we are researching obviously met on voyages, some married, and settled in Bucks. This is from Battle's (as you know I love this book). "The "Book of Arrivals" was a record provided for the "Frame of the Government", but Phineas Pemberton appears to have been the only one of the early officers to discharge the duty thus assigned. As no regulations were adopted to aid the register in making it complete, the list is not so complete nor accurate as we probably intended, but with all it imperfections it has been of great value to historians. The original record, time worn and barley legible, is still to be seen in the register's office at Doylestown, but in the natural order of things will soon fall into utter decay. It has never before been published, and is here preserved for the future historian. The register of births and deaths is copied in full. Of the register of marriages the certificates are omitted.(P.S. the people listed as servants passage was paid for the "Arriver", and mention is made of time to be served in labor to satisfy this debt, but will leave this out for know as it is lengthily, and not particurily relevant, Sandy) GEORGE POWNALL & ELEANOR, his wife, of Leylock, in the county of Chester, in old England, yeoman, came in the ship Called the Friends Adventure, the Mr. Thomas Wall, arrived the 28th of 7th mo. 1682.CHILDREN; Reuban, Elizabeth.
